I knew that someday I was going to die, and I knew that before I died, two things would happen to me. That number one; I would regret my entire life, and number two; that I would want to live my life over again.

I think Deulofeu is fantastic footballer, entertained me no end while at Everton with a small dose of frustration. He just needs the right manager to get the best out of him and probably indulge him the odd mistake/lazy games.

Type of footballer that makes me want to pay to watch the game, alas I don't think he is a Allardyce player.

All these exciting young players that we have cast aside to be replaced by overpaid jobber's. It's a fucking disgrace.

Lukaku, Deulofeu, Barkley all just slipped away to be replaced by dross.

I think the clause is barca have to keep him in the first team for a year before selling him,,thats why his on loan i think...one of bobbys phenomenal ideas

Wasn't actually Martinez's idea mate - he just relayed the information when asked.

Say what you want about Martinez - I went OTT on him toward the end of his time here - but the man at least appeared to give a shit, unlike the utter dick in charge right now - "Contracts are not my department" he said last week when asked about Mangala...

Thought we were onto something with Martinez. And Deulofeu. "He's magic, you know..."

I heard that last season Koeman called a crisis meeting before Christmas so everyone could get things off their chest, and Deulofeu said if he's not playing then he's not training.. and that's why he got turfed out.

I wouldn't know to be honest, I don't watch a lot of Spanish or Italian football. But the Deulofeu I watched last night had more attacking productivity and intent than any of our players have all this season.

I'm not an ITK but it's legit judging from who told me.

If thatís the case then he should have been fined a weeks wages for every training session he missed and I would think that it wouldnít have been to long before he had his boots back on and his tail between his legs
